Navigation:  Character formatting > Resetting the character formatting

Write allows you to remove character formatting at any time. You will find the commands for this process on the ribbon tab Home | group Character.

Applying via the icon in the command group "Character"

Write now removes any character formatting that you have manually applied to this section of text. However, the program retains paragraph formatting or character formatting from paragraph styles.

Note: This process also removes the character formatting Hidden and Protected. Thus hidden text becomes visible again, and protected text can be edited again.

Shortcut key

You can also use the keyboard to choose the command Reset character formatting:

Resetting in the dialog box of the command group "Character"

In the dialog box of the ribbon tab Home | group Character, you will also find a Reset button on each tab. However, the use of this button differs from the above function: You can only use it to undo all changes made in the open dialog box provided that you have not yet confirmed them with OK.

If the changes have already been confirmed with OK, they can only be undone via the Reset character formatting icon described above.
